The new German government's policy of turning asylum seekers away at its borders is illegal, a court ruled Monday.

"Persons who express the wish to seek asylum while at a border check on German territory may not be sent back" before it has been determined which state is responsible for processing the claim under the EU's "Dublin" system, Berlin's Administrative Court said in a statement.
